The Nolden Family

Here are some things we have been doing in the Spring of 2009…besides suffering from allergies (which most of us have been doing).

BUGS!!!

Above: This is just one of the cool creatures we have found around our house (mostly outside)…it’s cool and scary all at the same time.

Just Random…
Above: Magnificent Disco-ing Megan in her magnificently messy room!!! (and the crowd goes wild!)

Hannah Montana Movie

Above: We saw Hannah Montana the Movie a few days ago…very cute and family friendly. We all gave it a “THUMBS UP!” Here is the crew (l to r): Aunt Sandi, Hannah (the other Hannah), Liz, Donovan, Shayne, Megan, Mikayla, and Briona (Mikayla’s friend). PJ refused to be in the photo, so he took it. Where’s Ashley!!?? I think she was laying on the floor and PJ cut her out.

Above: This photo does not do justice to what took place. As we were walking out of the theater, Megan decided to throw all of her trash away. As soon as she did she said, “My phone!” She had accidentally dumped it into the trash as well. It all happened so fast, but the next thing I knew, I looked over and all I could see was Mikayla’s butt and legs sticking out of the trash can. She dove in head first to retrieve it for Megan…what are sisters for??? I missed the classic shot…but the memory remains . It was hilarious.

Twinners!!!!

Above: Megan and Liz went to a Stake Dance (church) the other night and decided to dress up the same. They looked so cute…and had a great time too.

Only in Georgia!!!

Above: Ok, if you’re from the South you may not find the humor in this that we did…but Frank and I were laughing so hard! We were on date night last night and saw this at the local car wash. We had to drive back by and take a picture (secretly as we were driving by…hence the fuzziness). Where else can you see someone vacuuming out their BBQer?? BBQing is HUGE in the South….and we have had some GOOOOD BBQ since we got here.

Stone Mountain….again…

Above: We had decided we had better get to Stone Mountain since we got an annual pass for everyone and it is up in September. It was fun but crowded because most of the schools in the area were on Spring Break…so we didn’t stay long.

Above: We took this one just for Hannah.

Above: The most fun we had at Stone Mountain was the 4-D movie of “Journey to the Center of the Earth.” They did like 20 minutes of the show with Brenden Frasier and added special effects. It was pretty enjoyable.

Church Party: Scripture Cake Decorating…

We were challenged to make cakes that had something to do with the scriptures for a recent ward party. PJ and Liz participated…with a little help from mom.

Above: PJ decided to do the Hill Cumorah. You can see the Golden Plates in the “hole” with Joseph Smith kneeling and the Angel Moroni there too.

Above: Liz did the parting of the Red Sea. They both did a really good job.

Above: This is Liz with her friend Liz at the party.

Above: Liz liked this one too because it showed her Ancestors…she has some Native American blood in her. This one was representing the 2000 Stripling Warriors. It was done by Bro. Joyner in the ward.

Above: PJ and Frank having their cake and eating it too! We were all pretty sick at the end of the night.

Above: Elders’ Cockayne and Escobido.

Above: The Remains….

Above: Megan texting at a church party…Really?…that is so wrong!

Above: Ta-da!! No more texting!!! Let’s eat Cake!
